He enjoyed a successful loan spell with National League side Bromley in the second half of the 2016/17 campaign, scoring four goals in eight games.
Now, Hanlan will gain more valuable first-team experience with Colchester in League Two while Charlton look to mount a promotion push.
The Addicks are fourth having won three of their opening four games.
